"Hey handsome, are you doing cosplay?"
Lu Xuan raised his eyes.
I recognized him by his eyes; he was just another shallow person attracted by my looks.
Readers should be able to understand the frustration of being misled by appearance; the connection here is very strong.
Lu Xuan looked up, his face full of doubt about her intelligence.
Who would come to cosplay under the overpass in front of the bar?
"You know this is in front of a bar?"
Lu Xuan's words were so confident that the young woman began to doubt whether it was her fault.
I subconsciously glanced at the bar across the street.
The city was brightly lit and bustling with people.
Who's a legitimate Taoist priest telling fortunes outside a bar?
“You are attached to appearances. This kind of place with its bright lights and bustling nightlife is where all living beings sink into depravity.”
Lu Xuan had an inscrutable expression.
"I came here to save them."
"Master, aren't you afraid of getting beaten up for talking like that?"
"Someone tried to beat me up a couple of days ago, but unfortunately I have some martial arts skills."
Lu Xuan looked on with a sigh.
The girl looked incredulous.
Now she no longer believed that Lu Xuan was a Taoist priest; she only thought he was here to deceive young girls.
However... this suits me perfectly.
Isn't it supposed to be me living like an ordinary person?
So it's normal for an ordinary person like me to have fun and get a boyfriend, right?
"Master, how about I treat you to a drink?"
"Just to my liking."
Lu Xuan swiftly packed up the flag and his equipment, then took off the girl's sunglasses and put them on his own face.
The girl was astonished by the speed.
You're so skilled, you're not a shill for the bar, are you?
"My name is Lu Xuan."
"Um, my name is Liu Yanyan."
"Liu Yanyan?"
Lu Xuan raised an eyebrow and his sunglasses slipped down slightly.
"You don't have an older sister named Liu Xuanxuan, do you?"
Liu Yanyan was taken aback.
"how do you know?"
Lu Xuan shrugged.
"I already told you I can tell fortunes."
Liu Yanyan looked at Lu Xuan with a hint of wariness in her eyes.
Knowing that she has an older sister, is she someone in the "circle"?
Liu Yanyan carefully examined Lu Xuan using her internal energy, but she couldn't tell whether Lu Xuan was an extraordinary person.
Looking him up and down carefully, no matter how you look at him, Lu Xuan is just an ordinary handsome guy.
"I lied to you."
"All the flowers fade, only the blooming one is still blooming, bringing all its charm to the little garden."
"I just suddenly remembered this line of poetry."
Liu Yanyan lowered her guard, then suddenly thought of something.
"So the calamity you just predicted was also a false one?"
"This is true."
"Don't come on, I don't believe it."
The two walked to the entrance of the brightly lit bar, and even before entering, they could feel the noise and vibrant atmosphere inside.
Lu Xuan instinctively covered his nose; it smelled awful.
It's not that there's actually a foul smell here, but rather that there's a repulsive aura emanating from here.
"Master Taoist? Have you come to the wrong place?"
The receptionist at the door narrowed his eyes when he saw Lu Xuan wearing a Taoist robe and carrying a sword.
A Taoist priest? Why are there suddenly Taoist priests here?
"Actually, I was just cosplaying."
Lu Xuan pulled down his sunglasses and pointed arrogantly at Liu Yanyan behind him.
"I'm here to have fun with girls, aren't you welcome?"
The waiter glanced at Liu Yanyan behind Lu Xuan and felt slightly relieved.
That's right, it's impossible for it to be such a coincidence.
And what use are people in the circle anyway?
We can solve it together if necessary.
They're leaving today, so they won't leave any evidence.
"Please come in!"
A cruel glint flashed in the waiter's eyes.
Lu Xuan led Liu Yanyan into the bar.
Liu Yanyan rolled her eyes and lowered her voice.
"Who's the girl you brought along?"
"Are you really a Taoist priest, given how skilled you are?"
"Would you believe me if I said I'm from Longhu Mountain?"
Liu Yanyan rolled her eyes; she didn't even bother to think before she lied.
Everyone knows that Longhu Mountain is the ancestral home of the Zhengyi sect, and its members are all noble and upright individuals, as clear as a gentle breeze.
It would never be someone like you, a conman and swindler.
You might as well say that the old Celestial Master of Longhu Mountain is a scoundrel who would plot against his disciples!
As Lu Xuan led Liu Yanyan into the bar, a weary and manic crimson gaze shone from the shadows on the overpass.
"Damn Taoist priest, I almost succeeded!"
Could this Taoist priest be part of the same circle?
Looking towards the bar, the person in the shadows felt a sense of fear; there was a familiar aura there that made him hesitant to enter.
But I'm about to lose my Qi...
A low, hoarse growl came from the shadows, as the dwindling power and madness continued to drain away his last shred of reason.
Never mind, I must obtain that woman's Qi today.
The person in the shadows staggered toward the bar.
Chapter 11: Sometimes being too charming isn't a good thing.
"What would you like to drink?"
At the bar counter, Liu Yanyan looked at Lu Xuan.
Although she felt cheated, she decided to forgive the fake Taoist priest who was trying to fool her, because Lu Xuan was so handsome.
After all, he's really too handsome.
Voiceover: [Lu Xuan: Sorry, being handsome means you can do whatever you want.]
"Monks do not drink alcohol."
Lu Xuan looked completely bewildered and innocent, like a kindergarten child.
"Please give me a glass of milk, thank you."
The bartender was speechless. "If you're a real Taoist priest, I'll give you my head."
But she still managed to pour Lu Xuan a glass of milk.
You're just asking to die; I'll see how you die soon enough.
The bartender concealed his resentment and bitterness in his eyes.
Liu Yanyan: Hehe!
Judging from how you walked into the bar just now, it would be a miracle if you were a real Taoist priest.
Just then, the loud music in the bar suddenly stopped, the lights dimmed, and the entire bar fell silent.
Before the emotions in the darkness could erupt, the bartender who had been mixing drinks just moments before picked up the microphone.
"Ladies and gentlemen, please enjoy our bar's signature program, featuring a performance by the hottest woman from Thailand."
"What the heck? Thailand?"
